Abstract

In one aspect, an example method includes receiving, by a computing device, first data representing first text; querying, by the computing device, a search engine using a first search-phrase, wherein the first search-phrase includes the represented first text; determining, by the computing device, that the search engine has suggested a second search-phrase based on the query, wherein the second search-phrase includes second text and is different from the first search-phrase; and responsive to determining that the search engine has suggested the second search-phrase based on the query, modifying, by the computing device, an electronic report by adding the first text to the electronic report.

Claims (52)

1 . A method comprising:

receiving, by a computing device, first data representing first text;

querying, by the computing device, a search engine using a first search-phrase, wherein the first search-phrase includes the represented first text;

determining, by the computing device, that the search engine has suggested a second search-phrase based on the query, wherein the second search-phrase includes second text and is different from the first search-phrase; and

responsive to determining that the search engine has suggested the second search-phrase based on the query, modifying, by the computing device, an electronic report by adding the first text to the electronic report.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

retrieving, by the computing device, second data representing third text that corresponds to the first text; and

wherein the first search-phrase further includes the represented third text.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the first text comprises a name of a candidate for a political office corresponding to a government, and the third text comprises at least one of the political office and the government.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the computing device, a search result of the query; and

wherein determining, by the computing device, that the search engine has suggested the second search-phrase based on the query comprises identifying, by the computing device, an indicator phrase within the received search result.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

outputting, by the computing device via a user interface, the modified electronic report.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein modifying, by the computing device via the user interface, the electronic report, comprises adding to the electronic report, the second text.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein outputting, by the computing device via the user interface, the modified electronic report, comprises displaying, by the computing device via the user interface, the modified electronic report.

8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a video stream;

modifying the received video stream by overlaying the second text on the received video stream; and

transmitting the modified video stream to a receiver.

9 . A method comprising:

receiving, by a computing device, first data representing first text;

querying, by the computing device, a search engine using a first search-phrase, wherein the first search-phrase includes the represented first text;

determining, by the computing device, that the search engine has suggested a second search-phrase based on the query, wherein the second search-phrase includes second text and is different from the first search-phrase; and

responsive to determining that the search engine has suggested the second search-phrase based on the query, outputting, by the computing device via a user interface, a prompt requesting a command to modify the first text by replacing the first text with the second text.

10 . The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

retrieving, by the computing device, second data representing third text that corresponds to the first text, wherein the first search-phrase further includes the represented third text.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the first text comprises a name of a candidate for a political office corresponding to a government, and the third text comprises at least one of the political office and the government.

12 . The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

receiving, by the computing device, a search result of the query; and

wherein determining, by the computing device, that the search engine has suggested the second search-phrase based on the query comprises identifying, by the computing device, an indicator phrase within the received search result.

13 . The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

receiving, by the computing device via the user interface, the command;

responsive to receiving, by the computing device via the user interface, the command, modifying, by the computing device, the first data such that the modified first data represents the second text in place of the first text.

14 . A method comprising:

receiving, by a computing device, first data representing first text;

querying, by the computing device, a search engine using a first search-phrase, wherein the first search-phrase includes the represented first text;

determining, by the computing device, that the search engine has suggested a second search-phrase based on the query, wherein the second search-phrase includes second text and is different from the first search-phrase; and

responsive to determining that the search engine has suggested the second search-phrase based on the query, performing, by the computing device, an action.

15 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

retrieving, by the computing device, data representing third text that corresponds to the first text; and

wherein the first search-phrase further includes the represented third text.

16 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising:

receiving, by the computing device, a search result of the query; and

wherein determining, by the computing device, that the search engine has suggested the second search-phrase based on the query comprises identifying, by the computing device, an indicator phrase within the received search result.

17 . The method of claim 14 , wherein performing, by the computing device, the action, comprises modifying, by the computing device, the first data such that the modified first data represents the second text in place of the first text.

18 . The method of claim 17 , further comprising:

receiving a video stream;

modifying the received video stream by overlaying the second text on the received video stream; and

transmitting the modified video stream to a receiver.

19 . The method of claim 14 , wherein performing, by the computing device, the action comprises modifying, by the computing device, an electronic report by adding the first search-phrase to the electronic report.

20 . The method of claim 14 , wherein performing, by the computing device, the action comprises outputting, by the computing device via a user interface, a prompt requesting a command to modify the first text by replacing the first text with the second text.
